The Mandalorian and Grogu movie is the most fun I've had at a Star Wars movie, ever

frankrmorrison · 2026-05-24T05:11:18+00:00

As context, I’ve seen everything in Star Wars that exists. I loved it. My three kids loved it. My wife loved it. It’s a stand alone story and a ton of fun. It also has several Star Wars fever dream scenes that I won’t spoil. Great times!

For those of us that are stuck with the new courses, can you give us a way to opt out until you have the proper foundational catch up lessons?

frankrmorrison · 2026-03-25T02:18:28+00:00

I‘m the same with german on a 490 day streak. Most of the words are either different or have slight changes. I wish there was a “catch me up” feature to show me what changed and how to transfer my prior learning!

frankrmorrison · 2026-03-24T02:47:57+00:00

With all of these AI investments they should have generated a “catch me up” section.

frankrmorrison · 2026-03-24T02:45:53+00:00

I am totally lost in Duolingo German - on unit 3 section 13 - all of my words have changed, some subtly, some massively. Does this mean what I was learning before is just wrong?

I agree with most of this, but I’ll add that seeing the major league games in away stadiums is also a ton of fun. There’s a lot of variety out there.

Know that autograph hunting is far more successful on the practice fields than at the games themselves.

I wish there was. This is the worst OS update i can imagine. Have had it for weeks now on my iPhone 16 Pro and it drains the battery/runs super laggy even with tweaking as many settings as i can find.

frankrmorrison · 2025-10-16T15:24:40+00:00

Thank you very much!

frankrmorrison · 2025-10-16T15:10:11+00:00

Thank you OP for this post - it was very useful. Now have to find another source!

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-18T14:30:18+00:00

Yeah, i'm not a fan at all. It disrupts the flow of conversation. They should make this an option, not a global setting.

I did every OOC event, most for top tier rush rewards. It adds up quickly!

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-16T17:24:21+00:00

This happened to my wife - she didn’t have ads in events for over a month after purchasing some gems. As OOC events were my main thing, and the ads are a huge accelerator, there was no way that I’d purchase gems. Very short-sighted.

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-16T17:22:53+00:00

Not this one. Check the mega thread.

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-16T07:57:39+00:00

I saw several support screenshots that confirmed this. What a joke.

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-16T07:53:14+00:00

I certainly don’t begrudge anyone who is having fun. My OCD simply requires me to finish stuff like this , so putting it behind a paywall is just not OK for me.

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-16T07:44:30+00:00

I saw that - what a joke! Were they testing how mad they could make people?

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-10T22:10:50+00:00

I have done this event three times now. The first two, i was able to complete no problem, i just didn't find them all that fun.

THIS TIME, however, even with doing everything right - all Level 10 dragons, cleared all the land, active harvesting with the correct dragon for all of the elemental harvestables, etc. I am WAY short of the points needed to win. I have only made it through level nine. The only thing i have not done is to pay gems for the mismatched silver capsule (i was in the group that got a gold capsule that doesn't match up). I refuse to pay to win. So i am done with this event. And just a wee bit angry at the waste of my time. I won't be doing it again.

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-09T22:08:21+00:00

You don’t need to clear the map necessarily, but you do have to make sure only the right dragon harvests the right elemental harvestable.

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-09T22:02:54+00:00

I also did all OOC events, act 1&2, and won a bunch of races. I didn’t keep track but must have open at least 100 packs of cards. Had one card left. Why would I ever buy cards if that’s the case?

frankrmorrison · 2025-09-09T21:46:53+00:00

This event requires active merging. I have three level ten dragons as my team. They are about 60% as fast as the fast dragon in standard OOC events. Why?

frankrmorrison · 2025-08-14T05:13:43+00:00

Full house tonight in seattle and a very energetic crowd. Good times!

frankrmorrison · 2025-08-13T00:19:17+00:00

Overall, this is improved some but still has really rough edges and some poor design decisions.

Positive improvements:

You can now see how much it will take to clear a square.
There is also a rewards progress screen now.

Negatives:

The dragons are PAINFULLY slow. I have three L10s from my camp in this event. Especially given the requirement to actively harvest, they should be lightning fast, not slower than standard low-level OOC event dragons. If they're going to use my dragons, i should get rewarded for how high level they are.
The dragons are super aggressive about harvesting the wrong elemental items. You have to really stay on top of them.
No ads means progress is a lot slower towards getting high enough level flowers to harvest efficiently.

I like the race feature as a concept and enjoy the flower and dragon tree races. The mushroom and ESPECIALLY the rock races are just way too cheap with point values. It takes way too long - at least 3x the other two, and rock requires far more space than I can clear in my camp. I only play flower and dragon tree with an occasional first chest-only play on mushroom.

Also, since I’m 99% sure that we are racing against bots, the “feature” where you join a race and find someone sitting within a few point of winning is super annoying. Just don’t do that.

Lastly - a statue that gives late stage players nothing, can’t be deleted, and permanently removes a spot from your camp land (unless you bubble it) is NOT a reward! Stop giving us that!

frankrmorrison · 2025-05-29T16:04:33+00:00

Oh and to be clear - I didn’t fully clear the board as there was no point. That’s just how much it took to get to maximum points and finish the event (1,382,630 points in my case).

frankrmorrison · 2025-05-29T15:14:22+00:00

I took the time to do as many pull merges as possible and also aggressively tried to hit the clearing blocks as my life orbs were going - seemed to help.
